What is a cornea specialist?

A corneal specialist is an Eye M.D. who specializes in diseases of the cornea, which is the front, dome-shaped, clear part of your eye. There are many diseases which may affecte the cornea and many of them can lead to vision loss.

Fortunately, many of these diseases are treatable and often only a fellowship-trained corneal specialist can treat these conditions.

Dr. Vincent is the only fellowship-trained corneal specialist in Northeast and North Central Louisiana. Because Dr. Vincent completed one of the few Anterior Segment Fellowships in the country, this means that he is equipped, not only to treat glaucoma, but also diseases of the cornea.
